Kate -
We truly appreciate you coming to New Orleans, even if the hurricane (hotel) chased you away. I know you’ll be back. Until next year.

p.s. I hope F. Paul Wilson comes back too, he is great!

Mary,
It was short but sweet, kinda like you. I cannot believe the hurricane queue that has formed.

So glad that you’re home safe, Kate. As you might know, I dithered about whether to go or not and finally cancelled out before flying down on Thursday night. This won’t keep me from going next year!

Now in the Keys, we prepare to see what Hurricane Hanna and Hurricane Ike decide to do and where.

Update from moi

Walked into my apartment in NYC at 1 a.m. on Sunday morning, thanks to good luck and good people. I was in NO with Kristine Mills-Noble. Like your Brava covers? She is the creative director who conceives and executes them.

We were at breakfast on Saturday morning at the conference, enjoying a panel discussion with F. Paul Wilson, Cathy Maxwell and Heather, when they announced the hotel was closing. After declining Cynthia Eden’s most kind offer to get us out to Alabama, we grabbed our bags and headed to the airport. Sam, at Continental, got us seats on an afternoon flight to Houston that they had just added. From there we had a flight to Newark. It was painless.

We’ll be back next year if not before,
Kate

Hope y’all have a blast in The Big Easy! Praying that Gustav dies out before it hits land again.

I predict that Gustav wouldn’t dare!

Hope Gustav heads a different direction. NO doesn’t need another hurricane.

I don’t want to think about Gustav either. Or the possiblity of contra-flow traffic Sunday – yikes! But I’m really looking forward to the conference. Hope to see you both there

Good morning, Kate! I am trying very, very hard not to think about Gustav–cause I’ll be in New Orleans at the conference, too! And it sure does look like the event will be a great deal of fun. I’m looking forward to the tarot card readings on Friday…
